It's gonna be a hot one for our 2019 Werribee Rotary Golf Day this Friday. So, if you are playing or volunteering, you are advised to keep your cool.

With the temperature expected to be in the high 30's, here a few tips to ensure you don't fry:

  • Take plenty of water with you and ensure that you take a regular drink to avoid dehydration. There will be drink carts but don't expect them to be at your beck and call when you are dying of thirst.
  • There will also be beer available from the carts but try and keep your intake to a minimum.
  • Wear a hat.
  • Wear light-weight clothes that not only provide you with protection from the sun but also keep you as cool as possible.
  • Take an umbrella and use it for extra sun shade in between shots.
  • Apply sun screen to all exposed skin before you venture out on to the course. Slip slop slap.
  • Take a small towel with you. Wet the towel and apply it to the back of your neck in between shots.

Don't forget that you can win a car from Ballan Holden in the hole-in-one competition. Thanks to Tino for making this prize available for the 4th time. No-one has come close to winning it yet but you never, never know until you have a go.

Just a reminder that the majority of the proceeds will go towards the upgrade of the dementia unit at Manor Court Aged Care.

Hope everyone enjoys the day. And remember to stay cool.
